Kimora Lee's Bold Move: Renouncing Surname for Empowering Rebirth

The era of Kimora Lee Simmons has officially ended as she legally shortened her name to Kimora Lee.

Kimora sees this as a strategic move for personal and professional independence, aiming for clarity and ownership.

She made it clear that the name change is more than just a new signature; it's a statement of control over her life and the empire she has built.

Defending Reputation

Kimora is actively defending her reputation against what she calls media misinformation, particularly criticising a recent New York Post article.

She accuses the article of being full of inaccuracies and asserts that the outlet revised it multiple times to evade responsibility.

Legal Protection

The name change is a strategic shield for Kimora against external narratives, with her team indicating her readiness to take legal action against those trying to harm her interests.

This move also marks a clean break from the legal troubles of her estranged husband, Tim Leissner.

Leissner, a former Goldman Sachs executive, was recently sentenced to two years in federal prison for his involvement in the 1MDB scandal, a global fraud scheme.
